Hi Rachel,
Welcome to your personalized Grit Lab report!
We will go week by week, reviewing everything you have told us through Poll Everywhere.
We hope this will help you reflect on what you learned and experienced during Grit Lab.
Here's how you started. On week one, after learning the basics of grit:
You rated your passion as NA
...and your perseverance as NA.
Here's a graph:

Then, you learned about goal setting, planning, and deliberate practice.
You established a wish, imagined its associated outcome, identified potential personal obstacles, and then planned accordingly, using implementation intentions.
Did it go according to plan?

In week four, we discussed feedback.
You told us that you felt "NA" when receiving negative feedback,
...and "NA" when recieveing positive feedback.
We then turned to learning about stress.
In week 5, you reported feeling "NA" of stress in your life right now, the primary source of it being NA.
We also talked about adversity and failure.
Although related, adversity and failure are different:
Adversity happens to us, whereas failure is something for which we are generally more responsible.
Perhaps that is why you said that failure had made you feel NA.
However, how we interpret stress and failure matters...
You said that you believe it is NA that the effects of stress are negative and should be avoided,
...and that it is NA that stress facilitates learning and growth.
Interestingly, research has found that people who believe that stress can facilitate learning and growth experience enhanced performance, well-being and health.
On week six, we talked about mentors
...you said for you, your most important mentor was NA.
Here's how you described him or her:

You also wrote a gratitude letter to NA. Do you remember what you said and how it made you feel?
On week eight, we talked about interest.
You saw this picture.
You rated it as
NA/10 in enjoyment,
NA/10 in interestingness, and
NA/10 in novelty.
